He considered such a fail- ure "undemocratic" and said the national advisory committee of the union, which had been given authority to deal with offers without reference to the membership, was an "oli- garthy." There is no doubt a good deal of justification for this | Sept. criticism. In addition to the original company offers, an offer was made by the Government Controller, on authority of the War Labor Boards, and surely this offer at least, should have merited the consideration and decision of the Hi But it too, was turned down by the Sep entire membership. "committee", and the strike was called in the face of it. It would seem as though the committee was more eager to Lk have a strike than to avoid having one. Here, in Oshawa, we do not believe such a condition exists. selves with making recommendations, but in no case we know of, have they sought to usurp authority that properly |} belongs to the rank and file of the membership. In fact we doubt very much if they would be permitted to do so if they |} were so inclined. We believe the membership of the various locals in Oshawa is too intelligent and well-balanced to be swept off thei feet by impressioned oratory, or to delegate to union leaders, particularly to professional "organizers", the authority to think and act for them. In all the welter of strikes that beset the country, Osh- Bride awa has been wonderfully free of serious labor troubles, and we hope that good sense, mutual co-operation and considera- | wa tion will continue to prevail during this period of transition from war to peace. We have but to look around us today and |: see how much better off we are than the workers and citizens generally in many other industrial centres. we cannot' hope to remain unaffected by strikes elsewhere, but we believe both management and labor will make every no effort to reduce such effect locally to a minimum. Automotive Jubilee A couple of weeks ago, public interest centred on cele- bration of the fiftieth anniversary of the automotive industry in Detroit. Today in England, similar celebrations commence and continue through August. _ Over there, a huge cavalcade of nearly 500 motor vehicles has been organized, principally of British-made vehicles representative of each year since 1896. Included also will be vehicles of national historic interest. On Saturday, July 27th, the cavalcade will be inspected by their Majesties the King and Queen, at Regents Park, London. A lengthy tour of the entire British Isles follows, with prolonged halts at large industrial centres. There need be no doubt of the interest aroused and in- spiration that will follow. The pitying wonder at some freak- ish object is quickly changed to admiration as past is com- pared with present. Certainly, as we contemplate the automobile industry the overwhelming conclusion is reached that no activity of modern mankind has been so phenomenal in growth or far-reaching in effect on human life and progress. While mechanically propelled vehicles were "designed and actually used in England more than a hundred years ago, restrictive laws arose, hindering further development. But for that, Erigland would probably have hada good, long start on the rest of the world, in fields of mechanical road trans- port. Indeed, it was only in 1896 that one such law was repealed which required a man carrying a red warning flag to walk ahead of any motor vehicle in motion. Freed from the absurd, cramping controls of "bumble- dom," development of modern road transportation has since had effect on untold fields of industrial and human activity. New enterprises have been born and new jobs created, unthought of even twenty-five years ago. And as the costly but absolutely necessary program of automotive research goes on progress will continue, opening up fresh fields and newer jcbs for those ready to undertake them. The cavalcade in England and celebrations in Detroit recall to mind that some twelve years or so ago, a splendid collection of old vehicles was brought together and displayed in Osha It has been hinted that they are still in storage hey the first cars produced in this Motor City came f or McLaughlin factory on Richmond Street in 1907, it would appear timely that a forty year celebration be held next year. Possibly the Chamber of Commerce already has such an idea under review, If so we have no doubt of the broad "public interest that would follow the announcement of such a quadragintal celebration. This is understandable and justifiable since occasional reference to milestones of the past ensures greater confidence while working towards the future, Unfortunately, Pi October 2.
